Ice maker not making ice and dripping water
This is an easy fix. The hardest part was just determining which part to replace. But the Q&A's for the ice maker from this site steered me right. And their video on how to install was easy to follow. The only difference I found was my Whirlpool had only 2 electrical connectors instead of the 3 in the video. I finished the job in about 15 minutes so everything in my freezer stayed solidly frozen.

Bottom plastic door cam on side-by-side frig worn, and door stop bracket broken.
1. Removed 2 screws on top hing.
2. Easily lifted door and place on table.
3. Removed set screw for door cam.
4. Removed stop bracket.
5. Reversed steps 4 thru 1.
When tightening top 2 screws, make sure door gap is consistent and top of frig door aligns with the top of the freezer door.
NOTE: The lady at PartSelect who helped me with my order was great. Took the time to verify my parts. Prior to this I had bought the part from a nearby appliance parts store. They sold me the wrong part, even though I showed them a picture of my model number plate b4 ordering. In the future, I will always go to PartSelect for my appliance part purchases.

My ice maker would only freeze for a short while, after unplugging it for a few hours it would begin to make ice again only to stop after a few trays
The repair went great, however, I had someone to put the part in for me.

lights wouldn't come on/work in refrigerator
Referencing the info/schematics you have on your website, I unscrewed/unattached top-front panel (carefully), from behind the panel you have to detach the wires (2) from the switch, pushed "in" the switch to remove, put in new switch and attach wires to test BEFORE remounting panel. Tada!! Thank you PartSelect! You saved me at least $80...would have been at least $100 to have a repair person come to the house!

Ice maker doesn't function
The wire bundle under the left lower corner has 8 wires of which 5 were chaffed and broken due to operation of the door and poor design. Remove the kick panel to expose the bundle, remove hardware holding the bundle to allow room to strip and splice the wires. Ice maker works fine now.
